First TV I ever saw was the size of a refrigerator and had about a 9" round tube. That was several years before my family got a TV. There were one or two channels on the air at that time, for a few hours each day.

Hail, yeah, you got more speed and storage than anyone will ever need....

On May 4, 2004, INdTV Holdings, a company co-founded by Gore and Joel Hyatt, purchased cable news channel NewsWorld International (NWI) from Vivendi Universal for the express purpose of launching their new network with the space on some digital cable lineups (and DirecTV) that NWI had.

You're a young pup. We had a Commodore VIC 20 with a 300 Baud Modem and a cassette tape drive. Also had a TRS80.

Now that was old school

Ahhhh...the Trash-80...what a system!

I had an Apple II with a language card, a Z80 coprocessor card, a Telex 80 column display card and a Hayes 300 baud Smartmodem (which came in two pieces for the Apple II - an internal card and external telephone interface, connected via a ribbon cable). I ran Apple DOS, p-System and CPm on that machine. Programmed in 6502 Assembler, BASIC, Fortran and Pascal. Those were the days...you had to write software that could run in 48k of RAM or less!
